}}James Marion Oler (born 1964) is the bishop of the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints (FLDS Church) in Canada, and has been convicted of being a practicing polygamist.[1][2] The polygamy case brought against Oler is considered{{by whom|date=July 2018}} "the first major test of Canada's polygamy law."[3] As of 2014, he is reported to have 13 children.[4]

FLDS schism in Canada

{{expand section|date=February 2012}}

James Oler is the current bishop of the Canadian FLDS, who are centered in Bountiful, British Columbia, Canada.[5] In 2002, Winston Blackmore was excommunicated from the FLDS, and the community of Bountiful, where most members live, divided between Blackmore and Warren Jeffs.[2] Following this schism, Jeffs appointed Oler as the new bishop.[6]

Polygamy trial in Canada

{{expand section|date=February 2012}}

Oler and Winston Blackmore were arrested by the Royal Canadian Mounted Police in January 2009 and charged with polygamy.[7] The charges were thrown out later, owing to questions about how the Crown selected its prosecutors.[7] On September 23, 2009, "Criminal polygamy charges against Winston Blackmore and Oler are thrown out by B.C. Supreme Court Judge Sunni Stromberg-Stein.[8]

Polygamy charges were brought against Blackmore and Oler again in August 2014, without the procedural errors that caused the previous charges to have been thrown out of court.[9]

On July 24, 2017, James Oler was found guilty of polygamy in the B.C. Supreme Court.[10] He, along with Winston Blackmore, face up to five years in prison for violation of Section 293 of the Criminal Code of Canada.[11]

On May 15, 2018, in Cranbrook, British Columbia, special prosecutor Peter Wilson recommended a jail sentence of one month to 90 days for Oler and a term between 90 days and six months for Blackmore.[12] On June 27, 2018 Justice Sheri Ann Donegan sentenced Blackmore to six months' house arrest. Oler was sentences to three months' house arrest.[13]
